Yeah I switched back to EQEmu's login server now I just freeze up after the server list only. This morning I had 3 toons in and was zoning like a champ - now I can't even get past the server select. Pingtest seems ok, and speedtest showed 2.4 mbps.

Oops guess the server is down for a lot of people, I'll try again when it's functioning properly.

ICMP packets are being blocked but the server was down indeed. Problem fixed and should be backup again.

Edit: for the non techies - if icmp is blocked, ping will always time out, so don't hold your breath on the results of this test.
